• Vista Home Premium will not write to CD - RW; will write to the CD - R and DVD

  I installed all the updates window vista Home premium. I have a DVD/R/W/drive. Vista will write a CD - R disc and the DVD disc. Vista will open the media on a CD - R, DVD, and CD - RW, which is what I use.  Vista will not write on a CD - RW disc, sending the files on the drive, pop - up Vista says "insert writable disc in the drive", or he'll want to format the drive, formatting always fails; I removed the filter upper and lower; I used MR. FixIt, and she came back with "media in the CD/DVD drive is not writable '; the disks are writable, but they are not recognized by Vista in writing. Here are the nine on box Maxell CD - RW discs. I have no problem with vista, write files to a CD - R or a DVD to burn. Windows Media Player will burn music to these CD - RW discs. How can I get Vista to recognize a CD - RW as a recordable disc?

• Windows Vista Home Premium does not start after mother, CPU and RAM upgrade card

  I recently updated my PC Windows Vista Home Premium. I changed the motherboard, CPU, RAM and video card. When I booted the machine, it has not started Windows. Windows tried to recover, but could not. Is it possible to get this machine to start without doing a new install? The new facility will lose important files.

  Hello

  It's a normal reaction after replacing the hardware that you have replaced.

  The hard drive with the installed operating system contains the old motherboard drivers, etc..

  They must be replaced with the new motherboard, drivers etc.

  You will need to reinstall the operating system and then install the new drivers of motherboard (you should have a diskette of drivers for it), if the new installation does not probably them, that it will not...

  To backup your data > buy a hard drive USB enclosure > put your hard drive in it > plug it into another computer > read and copy your data from it in this way.

• My Dell Studio 17 (with Vista Home Premium) will not let me install anything... ?

  Okay, so I recently bought a laptop... About two weeks ago now, I think that... It's a Dell Studio 17, and it runs on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. So far, I had a lot of problems to install programs on it. When I tried to install AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) it wouldn't download; I finally managed to do install via the start menu somehow...
  BUT now LENS won't let me sign... but that's another story! lol - the real thing that worries me is not able to install games. I just bought the Sims 3 and after inserting the disc, choose a language and a count of the wizard InstallShield, once I have access to the license agreement page and click on 'I agree' and click 'Next' an error message pops up saying something about impossible to install. He has a huge long error code and I don't know what that means. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the drive, so I went back to the store and exchanged it for a new one. When I got home and tried to install it again, it's the same thing. Then I tried to install another game that I have (Zoo Tycoon - Zookeeper edition) just to see if any game would work... It's the same thing; before he actually started to install an error message came. The first error message said something to have an invalid character in some way... ? ! (no idea...) Then an other error message pops up something else I didn't really...
  So, as you can see, there must be something wrong with my laptop. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE. I would appreciate advice...!

• Windows 7 Home Premium does not start and an external monitor connected via DVI to HDMI Cable

  I have a Dell Inspiron 531 desktop computer with a NVIDEA GeForce 8400 GS video card.  This video card has the following outputs: DVI, VGA and S-video.  When I connect it to my computer via the VGA port to PC to my Sony Bravia KDL-40XBR4 monitor port, the machine starts perfectly.  If I connect via a HDMI cable to one of the HDMI monitor DVI ports, the screen displays the video BIOS, but turns black when the operating system begins to load.  If I connect another monitor to the VGA port, yet once the machine boots fine, but if I connect the monitor to the computer and the Sony Bravia, once again the machine does not start.  The strange thing is that if I boot with only the connected computer screen and then plug the DVI to HDMI cable, then Windows 7 sees the Sony Bravia monitor very well, and I can extend the desktop.  If the machine mode 'sleep', both monitors work very well to wake up the PC.  So, if the Sony Bravia is connected alone or with the computer screen, the machine does not start (the screen will display 'go black' when the OS starts to load.)  I tried to run Windows in Mode safe, but he won't either.  I have all the updates of Windows applied and have installed the latest drivers from nVidea so.

  Hey Chris,

  First of all, about climbing, is not a technical support; This is a community forum where MS moderator and contributors are involved.  Now to your question ~

  It's very strange that the PC does not start when this unit is connected, but works fine when connected after the fact.  I've seen several cases where a hardware configuration of uinsusal will prevent a PC to boot.  I think that the culprit may be DVI to HDMI Cable that you are using.  If I were you, I try to connect the PC to a DVI monitor and see if it boots normally.  Also, see if the monitor can prevent another PC to start when it is connected directly via the HDMI.

  Good luck! Let us know how it turns out.

• HP Photosmart c7280 all-in-One vs. Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium - will NOT PRINT!

  I recorded more than 6 hours trying to get this thing to print.  It does not print.  Tried the wireless, USB, Ethernet, NOTHING!  My laptop Lenovo detect it when I plug in the USB cable, downloads, everything he needs, it's good to go, without errors, convenience store can not find something.  When I try to print something, the printer icon appears in the taskbar, but when I scroll over it, it says '0 documents pending' then it disappears eventually.  The only thing that I could print are the test page & page of the HP Toolbox diagnostics software help page.  When I try to print from any other program, it will not be printed.

  I downloaded and installed all the patches, updates and even reinstalled the software that is supposed to be compatible with WIndows 7.  I'm tired, I'm in a bad mood, I'm about to give up AND do what they hope, I'll do and just buy a new printer.

  I browsed all the forums here and done everything someone suggested.

• Vista 64 Bit Home Premium does not start when a disc is in the optical drive

  I tried to understand this for a long time, but I thought I might as well ask for help.  I use Vista 64 - bit Home Edition Premium and the problem I have is that I cannot restart my machine if a disc is in the optical drive. Specifically, if I have a DVD or Bluray disc in the optical drive (IE a BD - ROM drive). When I restart my computer and a disk is present, the startup process is going past the initial windows screen, but that's how far it goes. My desktop (I don't have a password to connect). Initially, I thought it was a matter of priority to boot but the boot process starts from the hard drive but stops at half way through. Then, I went into the BIOS and removed the optical drive completely from the boot priority list.  But there is no change in behavior. The process stops with the only thing visible on the splash screen is a black screen and the hard drive light flashes and goes out from time to time.  I use this computer as my Home Theater PC and sometimes I have to restart my machine when a movie DVD or a Bluray movie is in the optical drive. I would appreciate any response that can help me solve this problem...

  Thanks in advance...

  There may be something wrong with the files on your hard disk.  We will try to update to see if it helps:

  Do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

  If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

  If this does not resolve the problem, try the following:

  To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps (I believe you need a disc for Installation of Vista to do that, even if some Installtion OEM disc might work, but probably not all the recovery discs).

  1. put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.

  2. press a key when you are prompted.

  3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

  4. click on repair your computer.

  5. click on the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.

  6. in the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.

  7. type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

  Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:

  ·        bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup

  ·        c:

  ·        Boot CD

  ·        BCD attrib s h - r

  ·        Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old

  Bootrec /RebuildBcd

  If this does not work, or if you do not have the disk, try EasyBCD http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 and see if that works and does everything well.  Make sure what you are doing or you could mess up your boot files and you'd be in a lot of trouble.

  I don't know if the problem is even caused by startup files (but it is possible if it is not the BIOS), but you'd better check and if the procedures are followed to the letter as stated there is no harm in trying.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Windows Vista Home premium does not start correctly

  My computer vista laptop worked fine for two weeks then started having a lot of problems.
  Programs ceased work and the report of windows and kept solutions problems popping up, I think I have more than 40 unresolved issues.
  So if I haven´? t been on the laptop for a while, I start the blue screen of death and won´? boot t 20 minutes because it is proposed running a reboot each time due to the blue screen. I put the computer several times and still have the same effect after a while.

  I think that this could be a software issue more then a hardware problem but I don´? t want to go back to windows XP.
  I have can´? install service pack 1, when I try and install it says there is an internal error.
  I don't know how to solve my problems to initialize any ideas?

  Because it's wasting a lot of time, I don't know if I need to return my laptop

  Thank you

  Hi mate,

  These questions - and especially a BSOD - aren't very good signs of a healthy system / machine. Recently installed a few new applications or something else?

  OTHERWISE, I guess some hardware failures (memory, motherboard), because these problems appearing out of nowhere are probably based material and not really software Unetelle...

  If you have really formatted your HDD several times and nothing has been solved after re-installation of the system, contact a [service | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871] send the machine for them and allow them to check your machine on the malfunctioning of the equipment. You have a warranty, so please use it.

• Windows 7 Home Premium will not validate?

  If you want to delete everything, that the easy way to do it :)

  Just read the manual and use the manufacturer's recommended recovery procedures. It will completely delete the c: drive, so if you have data that you want to keep, you must save in the external storage (external hard drive DVD., etc..)

  A repair install is not so easy - and you will have to borrow a record retail WIn 7 of someone to be able to do anyway.

  Thanks to all who tried to help. I'm not familiar with how this forum is organized and did not know that I was causing a problem. I understand that this thread is currently disabled. Still, I can't use my computer laptop, but good. After losing $200.00, I guess I'll take it to another place of repair and see what they can do. I refuse to pay for another Windows 7 because Microsoft doesn't want to validate my upgrade. I'm obviously not a savvy individual computer and I don't expect free repairs, but I'm tired of getting ripped off.
  Thanks again,

  I don't get any readings of error that it does not just improve. I put it in my DVD player and nothing happens. Please help I paid $115.00 for this upgrade disc. I also use 32-bit software if this is useful,

• Windows 7 Home Premium does not load

  I am currently in safe mode with network. The two safemodes work very well.

  However, my Normal Windows 7 Home Premium will not load. I get a black screen after startup. Windows will not even go to the Page of the user.

  I was at my desk and clicked on the Mozilla Firefox browser. When a guest is up asking if its 'ok' firefox in the Trash Dump. Then, he gave me 29 guests asking if it is "ok". Of course, I clicked 'No' which then froze my computer.

  Then, I Hardbooted the computer and went to restart. After the bios loading system... my computer would achieve was a black screen.

  Since then, I did a system restore to several days before. And that has not fixed the problem.

  My guess is that I've damaged some system files? Or is it a virus. I use Avast basic protection.

  Please get back to me with more information. Thank you
